Chapter 246 The Morning Wool Secret Continues

After Ivars promotion, he hadn’t even had time to go and greet Sherlock if his promotion went well ……

As a result, Sherlock came to the door on his own, pre-empting to confirm whether Aiwas and Isabel’s promotion had gone smoothly.

The only problem was that he wasn’t heading to the Temple of Silver and Tin, but to the King’s Law University.

He just stood squarely in front of the school’s main entrance to intercept Ivars, and incidentally received an interview from the four newspapers that had rushed over within half an hour of smelling it.

The resurrection of Mr. Sherlock, the famous detective whose funeral had been held in public – this matter didn’t even need to be thought about, it knew that it would surely make the front page headlines. Whatever the original headline was, it could be stolen straight away.

Sherlock, the Great Detective, resurrected!
Sherlock’s reputation in Avalon was very high.

It’s different from the heroic positioning of Ivars’ many times of eradicating evil, purifying demons, protecting civilians, and healing the wounded.

He is worshipped because he is a symbol.

“Sherlock” represents a possibility: even if he doesn’t enter the Inspectorate, the House of Inspectors, or the Court of Law, even if he is a commoner who doesn’t hold any power or wealth in his hands – as long as his personal talent is outstanding, even the Inspector General has to respect him, and he can even get a reception from the Queen. the Queen’s reception.

Because Avalon needs Sherlock.

Though it is known that Sherlock is a member of the House of Hermes. However, his brother had always kept a low profile, and not everyone even at the Round Table knew his name. It was almost as if he was invisible, not seen in any political battles, tabloids, or public speeches. He went to all the parties he was supposed to go to, but he had no presence at them either.

The impression of the Hermes family was that Sherlock’s father had gotten into trouble and resigned.

-Look na, a retired official who caused the assassination of a member of the royal family because of his work mistakes, and his offspring can also be received and respected by the Queen for his excellent personal abilities!
The result is that Sherlock, who comes from the Hermes family, has become a commoner’s icon throughout Avalon.

In the interview, Sherlock told carefully to the reporter, who he was assassinated by, why he hid his identity and faked his death, and then later designed a layout with his dear friend, Ivars Moriarty – finally succeeded in finding out the evidence of espionage of the Minister of Trade, Drost.

In fact, there are quite a few people who know about the fact that the Trade Minister was imprisoned under investigation for espionage.

However most people didn’t know exactly what crime he had committed. Many people even thought that this was nothing more than a political struggle in the upper echelons of Avalon …… because Minister Drost’s reputation in the civil society was actually quite good.

He was an affable and businesslike old man. As the Minister of Trade, he often gave interviews to journalists and explained the benefits of various economic policies to the civilians.

It was also because the Queen’s reputation was higher that he was able to hold down the fort.

And now, Sherlock didn’t hesitate to poke his nose into this matter.

His angle was also simple-

“The person who tried to assassinate me is closely related to Drost.”

Sherlock said very seriously, “He has a close relationship with the Noble Red Knot, and has repeatedly hired murderers to kill. I have already found out multiple pieces of definitive evidence, which will be sent to the Glass Steps Newspaper for public announcement in the next few days.”

Drost was friends with Vice-President Boca, whose henchman was Lawyer York, and Lawyer York was the one who assassinated Sherlock. The explosives he even used were smuggled in through channels provided by Drost; it was for investigating the smuggling case that Sherlock was assassinated by Lawyer York.

From this point of view, there was absolutely no semblance of a problem for Sherlock to say that the person who authorized his assassination was Minister Drost.

“At the same time, he raised the tariffs on alchemy products three times in a year in the name of protecting Avalon’s industry. Yet he himself took the opportunity to smuggle these alchemy products – according to the evidence I’ve already established, he controls at least fourteen trading companies and more than sixty warehouses in the Lloyd District.

“Last year alone, his single trade has amounted to 170% of Avalon’s imports of alchemical products from Iris and the Church Kingdom. It can be said that at present, there are basically no alchemy stores in Avalon that ‘don’t sell smuggled goods’ because he has already seized an absolutely dominant source of goods.

“Just today, there will be a freighter from Star Antimony arriving at the harbor. It will be filled with alchemy raw materials, and the name of the cargo owner is the same – Charles Drost. Please stay tuned.”

This was the intelligence from Ivars.

Minister Drost had already sent the deposit to the “King” before he was arrested. According to the freighter’s return time, today is the day the shipment will arrive.

Because of Minister Drost’s absolute control of the harbor, his smuggling methods were very simple – even so simple as to be crude.

He would send a large number of merchant ships from Lloyd’s Register, loaded with seafood or cheap wine, to their destination.

Upon arrival, the source on the other side would remove the cargo from the barrels. They would then load the goods that needed to be shipped, and then they would send them back, under the guise of a misdirected shipment or something like that, and they would park them directly in the shipping area of the harbor. So Drost would then send someone to swap the real goods in, and the second time it would be sent to the real shipper.

If it were up to the average person, this would definitely not work. But no one would have checked Drost’s shipment.

And by now Ivars had arrived and had been listening around for a while. Although Lily had been able to fully house the Shadow Demon without causing a leak …… Aiwas couldn t just suddenly get up from his wheelchair. Even though there were already quite a few people who knew Aiwas’s secret as well, it was better to at least be polite and not too direct.

This vacation was a good excuse.

And at that moment, Aiwas directly let Lily push her wheelchair into the crowd, ”In addition to that, Minister Drost has hired murderers to kill many times, some of them were businessmen who didn’t give him face, and some of them were his political enemies.

“And some for no apparent reason, including even the mother of his children. Just because she had given him an illegitimate daughter, she intended to assassinate both mother and daughter.”

“May I ask if you have proof of that?”

The TO who had been planted in the crowd, unknown to him, suddenly opened his mouth and asked.

Aiwas said with certainty, “Of course I do, because I am the witness in this matter-“

With that, Aiwas reached out and pulled Lily behind him.

“My friend, my personal maid, my sister …… Lily Drost who has cared for me since I was a child. Was the victim of his assassination. It was because of this incident that Sherlock and I caught him in the act of following him.

“–And before that, her mother was the victim!”

Ivars didn’t intend to explain too complicated political and economic issues to the reporters.

The many bills signed by Drost were too difficult to try to explain. These journalists were unprofessional themselves, and if they were allowed to translate them a second time, what would end up reaching the ears of the readers would inevitably be uncritical.

So Ivars thought differently from Sherlock – he chose to attack Drost himself directly.

“We still don’t know exactly how much information the former trade minister has sold and how deeply he has betrayed us.

“But according to my research, the former minister now has four estates of his own, and a Viscountcy in Star Antimony. He became a genuine Star Antimony noble and established the ‘Drost Manor’ ……”

–This was also indeed what they had investigated, not something that Aiwas had made up.

Although Minister Drost was dead, his son and daughter were now being investigated by the Inspectorate. And the information Aiwas had on hand was fresh and hot and had just arrived at the Hall of Silver and Tin this morning. Not even the Hall of the Round Table knew about it yet.

“Well, well!”

Just then, a young woman in red bishop’s robes with an erect ponytail and curly hair laughed, clapping her hands as she walked over, “There’s a final exam today, so if the interviews are okay, that’s all for now! Let’s get the kids in for their exams first-“

Ms. Maia dispersed the crowd and walked over to Ivars with a subdued smile on her face.

Only when everyone around her had left did her face change slightly and lower her head somewhat nervously, “How did you get promoted again, so quickly?”

“Is it bad to be quick?”

Aywas asked rhetorically.

Meiya had a bit of a headache, “I was originally just stalling a bit …… but this time it won’t work if I don’t give it to you right away, this promotion of yours is not too fast. This book of secret sequences must be mastered before the third energy level, once it exceeds this level too much it will be impossible to understand.

“When my class exams are finished today, you will come back home with me. I’ll lend you the Chenwu Tantric Sequence-it’s the payment we agreed upon before, and I haven’t forgotten it yet.”

Aiwas tilted his head slightly, with some bewilderment in his eyes.

…… You haven’t forgotten, but I have.

When was this?

On the other side, a middle aged man with somewhat disheveled hair was standing on the boat, looking expectantly at the sea horizon that was getting closer and closer in the distance.

This order was really too big, so much so that he was a little uneasy about handing over the goods directly to them.

For the sake of this big business, big customers …… “king” decided to personally follow the delivery.

The update is complete!
I super, just code words, warm sun giant suddenly sent me an apple 15!

Woohoo all thanks to Golden Jasmine’s notification I didn’t miss it, thanks Jasmine Leigh!
